EP19 - Essure Sterilization: Life-Threatening Migration, Fatigue, Pain & Symptoms 

Our guest for this episode is a first for the Heavily Metalled Podcast….”Maria” is telling her story, choosing to remain anonymous, regarding almost a decade of pain, symptoms and difficulties surrounding the Essure permanent metal sterilization device, taken off the market in December of 2018 after a litany of deaths, adverse event reports and intense scrutiny.

“Maria” was able to have her Essure removed via a full hysterectomy, many years after having the devices implanted for the bargain-basement price of $50, and experiencing brain fog, fatigue, severe pain and many other symptoms that medical professionals did not feel could be related.

She shares her courageous fight, along with her physical and emotional journey in order to help others identify mysterious symptoms and pains that may not even be on the patient radar surrounding the Essure devices.

“Maria’s” story is not a story of metal allergy, but a story of a foreign body reaction causing physical and immune havoc within a formerly healthy body. Solving years of mystery symptoms and returning to full health with the miraculous removal of the metal devices sent her on a mission to help educate and prevent anyone from suffering the same fate due to the Essure sterilization device. 

In this episode you will learn:

  • Health concerns and adverse effects surrounding Essure. 

  • How providers often failed to notify Essure patients of pending litigation and symptoms. 

  • Why removing the Essure sterilization device is anything but simple. 

  • How patients who still have implanted Essure devices remain at risk.
